Bring Indoor Sports back to Washington State
Bring Indoor Sports back to Washington State
Why this petition matters
I have played hockey for two years but I still enjoy it very much. I am a child (I’m only 12 years old) but I believe that indoor sports are crucial to children’s health and education. Sports teach children to be fair and work together. Sports also help children get exercise. As new regulations are imposed by Governor Inslee, it’s getting harder and harder to get children to get outside and play. Technology is also playing a part in this too. Children, (including me) are stuck to their devices 24/7. School via Zoom doesn’t let kids see their friends. Everyone, (at least for me) has their camera off. This is why child suicide rate are up, not only because of COVID-19, but from children not seeing their friends. Sports help children see their friends and enjoy being kids. Our hockey association (TCAHA) has done everything that Inslee said. They social distance us, temperature check us, etc.This is just ridiculous. This is why you should not let Governor Inslee take our rights away.
